incorrect password three consecutive times, you must turn the computer off and
start again.

password is the same, you will be prompted for the password only once when
you turn on your computer.

Password has been set unless that computer also supports the IDE Drive User
password.
v
If your computer is connected to a local area network (LAN), Wake on LAN will
not work unless both a User Password and an IDE Drive User Password are set
using the same password.
User password
When a User Password is set, the user is prompted to type a valid password each
time the computer is turned on. The computer cannot be used until a valid
password is typed from the keyboard.
Administrator password
Setting an Administrator Password deters unauthorized persons from changing
configuration settings. If you are responsible for maintaining the settings of several
computers, you might want to set an Administrator Password.
After you set an Administrator Password, a password prompt is displayed each
time you try to access the IBM Setup Utility program.
If both the user and administrator passwords are set, you can type either
password. However, to change any configuration settings, you must use your
administrator password.
IDE Drive User Password
The IDE Drive User Password is used to protect the data on the IDE hard disk
drive(s). When this password is set, you are prompted to type a valid password
before any hard disk drive can be used. This prompt is displayed each time you
turn on your computer. If your computer has multiple hard disk drives, they all
must use the same password.
Attention
If an IDE Drive User Password is set but no IDE Drive Master Password is
set, there is no recovery in the event that the IDE Drive User Password is lost
or forgotten. The hard disk drive must be replaced. See “IDE Drive Master
Password.”
IDE Drive Master Password
The IDE Drive Master Password is used to recover use of the hard disk drive in
the event that the IDE Drive User Password is lost or forgotten. Only the person
who knows the IDE Drive Master password can reset the IDE Drive User
Password.
